Halloween...not yet.

So seeing how it is the day after Halloween I SHOULD be blogging and posting the accompanying pictures and activities. However, I am behind in blogging so you don't get to see those yet, so stay tuned for the Hartley Halloween.

Amy is going to kill me but I had to post these pictures because I think they are funny. Here is the back story. I got Brad and awesome fathers day present this year (if I do say so myself!), I had the kids pictures taken and I framed them all an put them in an arrangement and hung them in his office. He LOVED it. In fact he liked it so much that he wanted it to be where people could see it more, so he decided to move it into the family room. Well Brad and I have a history of not doing so well in projects together sometimes (in fact our first fight as newlyweds was putting together a cheap entertainment center that had like 1000 pieces), we also differ on our decorating ideas and tastes. So when we have a disagreement on how or where something should go I have started calling my friend Amy for back up. She is a good enough friend to tell us the truth and (unfortunately for me) she doesn't just choose my side because she is my friend. So I called Amy over to help decide where we should put this picture collage. After we all agreed where to put it Brad and I started arguing about the best way to go about it. So Amy stepped in, handed me her baby and helped Brad get the rod hung. It was so funny to watch. Brad will totally take her advice but not mine (whatever). At least we can get our projects done somehow, and if I don't have to be involved...even better! It looks great now and the rod is perfectly place and perfectly level...no thanks to me apparently!

Maybe I should start paying her for her services.


They work so well together...if that had been me, things would have not gone so smoothly. Thanks Amy!
